Education prepares our children to become the future leaders of our state, and there is no better investment we can make than our kids. Utah students deserve a top-notch education no matter who they are or where in our state they live. Local control — Education is the responsibility of states and I believe in local control for our state and district boards. As your Senator, I would support less federal control over standardized testing. Funding — I support Trust Land Exchanges which have increased Utah’s public school funding by more than $441 million dollars. This funding can only be generated by a federal exchange but is managed by School Community Councils, the most local way to see funds in our children’s classrooms.
